A
brief synopsis of the show:
The
action occurs in an Italian restaurant owned by a successful mobster and managed
by his beautiful unmarried daughter. When the daughter's former college
professor arrives to ask for financial backing for a play he's written about a
murder, the fun begins. The three main Mafiosi are intrigued with the idea of
producing a play. The daughter becomes enamored of the playwright, who is
delighted to have the family's support. His bubble is burst when he discovers,
through the "accidental" death by train of a lesser thug, that his backers are
gangsters. In this madcap situation, murder and menace are served up with plenty
of pasta and laughter.
